Author resources

The Canadian Journal of Criminology and Criminal Justice exists for the purpose of publishing, in English or French, original research, information, and views on all aspects of criminology and criminal justice, with priority given to matters relevant to Canada or to Canadians. Its intended audience comprises researchers, students, policy makers, practitioners, and, ultimately, members of the public interested in these fields.

The Editorial Committee seeks submissions that are based on high-quality quantitative, qualitative, or mixed-methods research. The Committee will also consider publication of articles that address critical issues in criminal justice policy (preferably, evidence-based) and short research notes, which report on empirical results with less attention than a regular article to theoretical framing and implications.

All Canadian Journal of Criminology and Criminal Justice submissions, reviews, and editorial work is done through our online peer review management system, ScholarOne Manuscripts. At this time, we would ask that you please contribute content to the journal through ScholarOne Manuscripts.
